Colorado Drug Situation:

Mexican poly-drug trafficking organizations control most of the methamphetamine, cocaine, marijuana and heroin distribution in Colorado.
Dealers with ties to larger criminal organizations in Texas, California and Mexico are involved in all types of drug distribution throughout Colorado.
The majority of club drug distribution is conducted by independent traffickers and loosely-knit organizations with various sources of supply, both overseas and within the United States. DEA investigations indicate that violence, pornography and prostitution often play key roles in club drug trafficking and abuse.

Colorado Cocaine:

Enforcement activities reflect a steady supply of cocaine coming into and through Colorado. Reports from law enforcement indicate increased availability of cocaine around the state. Crack is available in the larger metropolitan areas of Colorado, generally in street level amounts.

Colorado Heroin:

Mexican black tar heroin is the predominant type of heroin found in Colorado. Various law enforcement and treatment indicators suggest that heroin availability and use may be on the rise in Colorado.

Colorado Methamphetemines:

Most of the methamphetamine available in Colorado originates in Mexico. In recent years, the potency of methamphetamine produced in Mexico has risen to levels comparable to that made in smaller, local clandestine laboratories. While clandestine laboratories remain problematic to law enforcement in Colorado, the number of such laboratories has diminished dramatically. This is possibly due to the increasing supply of Mexican-produced methamphetamine. Despite a lower number of clandestine laboratories, these operations still represent a threat to the public safety and the environment.

Colorado Marijuana:

Marijuana is available throughout Colorado and is the most widely abused drug in the state. The most abundant supply of marijuana is Mexican-grown and is brought into and through Colorado by poly-drug trafficking organizations. Effective June 1, 2001, Amendment 20 allows for the use and possession of small amounts of marijuana for sick and dying patients. In 2006, a measure proposing the legalization of the possession of ounce or smaller amounts of marijuana for personal recreational use was defeated.

Colorado Prescriptions:

Current investigations indicate that diversion of hydrocodone products such as Vicodin®, and oxycodone products (such as brand name and generic OxyContin®) continues to be a problem in Colorado. Primary methods of diversion being reported are forged prescriptions, employee theft, and the Internet. Benzodiazepines (such as Xanax® and Valium®), methadone, MS Contin®, Darvon® and Darvocet® were also identified as being among the most commonly abused and diverted pharmaceuticals in Colorado.

Colorado Club Drugs:

The category of substances known as “club drugs” is most often associated with nightclubs and private parties. DEA investigations indicate that violence, pornography, and prostitution often play key roles in club drug trafficking and abuse. MDMA generally is distributed by independent traffickers or loosely-knit organizations with both domestic and foreign sources of supply. Asian gangs play a significant role in club drug distribution. LSD, Ketamine, and gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) are also distributed and used in the nightclub scene.
